TRIM28 is a co-repressor, which interacts with HP1 proteins and chromatin repressive complexes leading to gene expression silencing. In this study, after we used Lipofectamine3000-mediating siRNA and restructured p EGFP-IRES2-TRIM28 to transfect bovine fibroblasts, the expression levels of TRIM28, HP1BP3, DNMT, SETDB1, TP53, BAX, Bcl and SOD were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In addition, the influence of p EGFP-IRES2-TRIM28 on histone H3K9me3 was also observed. In the siRNA transfected group, TRIM28 was down-regulated (P less than 0.01), which inhibited cell proliferation and reduced the level of H3K9me3 expression. In the p EGFP-IRES2-TRIM28 transfected group, TRIM28 was over-expressed (P less than 0.01), and the pro-apoptosis gene BAX was significantly decreased (P ess tahn 0.01), but there was no significant change in other genes. Our results demonstrate that TRIM28 plays an important role in bovine fibroblasts and might be a valuable biomolecule for proliferation, apoptosis, and histone H3K9 trimethylation.

AbstractBackgroundQuantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) are methods used for gene expression analysis in several contexts, including reproductive endocrinology.ObjectivesHerein, we compared qPCR and ddPCR technologies for gene expression analysis of hormone membrane receptor-encoding genes, such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSHR), G protein-coupled estrogen (GPER) and choriogonadotropin receptors (LHCGR), as well as the commonly used RPS7 housekeeping gene, in order to identify the most reliable method to be applied for gene expression analysis in the context of human reproduction.MethodsTotal RNA was extracted from human primary granulosa cells of donor patients undergoing assisted reproduction and used for gene expression analysis by qPCR and ddPCR, after finding the optimal annealing temperature.ResultsBoth techniques provided results reflecting the low number of FSHR and GPER transcripts, although ddPCR detected also unspecific transcripts in using RPS7 primers and quantified the low-expressed genes with major accuracy, thanks to its higher reaction efficiency. The absolute FSHR and GPER transcript number was also determined by ddPCR, resulting in 50- to 170-fold lower amount than LHCGR transcripts.ConclusionThese results suggest that ddPCR is the candidate technology for analysis of genes with relatively low expression levels and provides useful insights for characterizing hormone receptor expression levels in the context of reproductive endocrinology.

Abstract Abstract 4706 Introdution Current study found that certain genetic abnormalities are related to the prognosis of AML, such as ERG and MN1 gene expression. However, little is known about the clinical significance of ERG and MN1 expression level in Chinese patients with AML and and their correlation. Patients and methods A real time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction method was established for detecting ERG and MN1 gene expression levels in 87 de novo AML patients. Results The median expression levels of ERG and MN1 in AML patient were statistically higher than that in normal control group (P<0.001). ERG gene expression had no correlation with MN1 gene expression (P=0.194) in AML patients. ERG and MN1 gene expressions were equally distributed among the FAB subtypes (P=0.850 and 0.870). Spearman's rank correlation showed that leukocyte counts and lactate dehydrogenase were significantly related to high ERG expression (P=0.005 and 0.032), but not significant correlation was found between hemoglobin and platelet counts. The ERG expression level of cases with middle and low risk group was lower than that of cases with high risk group (P<0.036). There was no significant difference of CR rates in high and low ERG and MN1 expression groups after chemical theropy (P=0.968 and 0.695). During the follow-up of one year, the cumulative relapse rates of high ERG expression groups was significantly higher than that of low ERG expression groups(P=0.039), and high ERG expression cases have a significantly worse OS than low ERG expression cases(P=0.005). Conclusions There isn't a linear correlation between ERG gene expression and MN1 gene expression in AML. Overexpression of ERG gene is a independent prognositic factor for AML. Quantification of the two gene expression together is not more effective to the judgement of prognosis in AML. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Aim. To study the expression level of the genes DROSHA and DICER in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) of patients with sarcoidosis of the lungs Materials and methods. The study included 32 patients diagnosed with persistent lung sarcoidosis (mean age 41.56±1.27 years) and 36 healthy donors (control; mean age 42.79±1.95 years). The level of expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) of the genes DROSHA and DICER were determined in PBL of healthy donors and patients with sarcoidosis of the lung by polymerase chain reaction in real time. Results. As a result of the conducted researches it is established that the level of drosha gene expression in PBL patients with sarcoidosis of lungs is significantly reduced in comparison with the control (p

The aim of the present study was to compare real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and end-point PCR with respect to their suitability for the analysis of gene expression in samples in which the number of cells is limited; for example, in studies of preimplantation embryonic development and to determine the variability of the real-time reverse transcription–PCR assay. The sensitivity, dynamic range and precision of both PCR systems were compared using a single mouse liver cDNA standard. The real-time system was 100-fold more sensitive than the end-point system and had a dynamic range of more than four orders of magnitude. The linear range for end-point PCR extended for two orders of magnitude using a fixed end-point of 31 cycles. The percentage standard error of the mean based on 30 replicates was 0.14% of the threshold cycle (Ct) value for the real-time system and 6.8% for the end-point fluorescence intensity. The coefficients of variation (CV) for reverse transcription combined with real-time analysis and the complete gene expression protocol consisting of mRNA isolation, reverse transcription and real-time PCR analysis were 0.6% and 1.4% of the Ct values, respectively. The present paper details, for the first time, measurement of the biological variation of individual mammalian oocytes. The CV was 1.8% of the Ct value for expression analysis of six bovine oocytes. The results are discussed in relation to the analysis of gene expression in preimplantation embryo development.
